Found an old paystub from my burger joint job 8 years ago and couldn't believe my eyes

I was cleaning out a junk drawer yesterday and stumbled across a pay stub from 2016 when I worked the fry station at a Wendy's in Ohio, and my hourly wage was only $7.40 back then. Makes me appreciate my current desk job a lot more, has anyone else found old pay stubs that made you cringe?

$7.40 an hour really shows how fast everything has gotten more expensive, doesn't it?

Might as well be back in 2012 at that rate.

$7.40 went further in 2016 since rent and food haven't doubled yet.
